The name "non-alcoholic steatohepatitis" (NASH) was later defined in 1980 by Jurgen Ludwig and his colleagues from the Mayo Clinic[76] in order to raise awareness on the existence of this pathology,
as similar reports previously were dismissed as patients lies.[72] This paper was mostly ignored at the time but came to be seen as a landmark paper, and starting in the mid-1990s the condition began to be intensively studied, with a series of international meetings were held on the topic starting in 1998.[77] The broader NAFLD term started to be used around 2002.[77][78] Diagnostic criteria began to be worked out, and in 2005 the Pathology Committee of the NIH NASH Clinical Research Network proposed the NAS scoring system.[77]
